"Today, I'm officially retiring a Pittsburgh Steeler. And as much as I will miss football, my teammates, coaches and everything about the game, I don't want to play it in any other uniform. The black and gold runs deep in me, and I will remain a Steeler for life."--Hines Ward

We will win this game. And we will lay such a beating on Manning, he'll wonder why he came back to football.

Steelers 34 Broncos 17

I gave up thinking there were easy games when we lost to Denver in the playoffs with a QB who couldn't throw. I am glad we have moved a few people this year but sometimes it takes players time to get acclimated to each other. Plus, we will kind of be preparing for two teams. Manning is bringing his own plays so how much of Denver's O is new won't be known until after a few weeks into the season.

Playing the Broncos to start off the season will be hard, they are implementing a whole new system and we'll have no tape to review. Ugh, I live in Colorado too and all my relatives/buddies are Denver fans and **** talked the hell out of me after our playoff loss to them. Besides beating the Ravens, beating the Broncos and Chiefs come next on my list of teams to beat.

Yea, it is a very early bye, but consider that 2 of first 3 games are western road games and it may not be at such a bad time. First impression is that it's a tough schedule, but there are several primetime games and Ravens slate is tougher.

I rather play manning in week 1 as they have less time to get things together...but I dont like playing the Ravens week 11 and 13 ...WTF ....a bit early in between....nonetheless , minus the browns, not any super easy games this yr like last yrs NFC West

Chargers, Cowboys, and Ravens twice in five weeks late in the season...............guess we will see if we are ready for the playoffs at that point. At least we have the Benguls and Clowns at home to close out...........

I'll be perfectly honest ....

I HATE everything about this schedule. Why?

Because the NFL did everything it possibly could NOT to allow the Steelers to find any contineuity week after week. They know the Steelers play their best football when they are allowed to have normalcy ... or somewhat of a routine each week.

I don't like that either man. I personally don't like all the 4:15 games; screws up my whole Sunday routine. I like the primetime games, those are always fun but the rest of it you can have. 1pm, 4:15, 8pm, 1pm, 4:15, 8pm..ugh..
